Host Dara reflects on a conversation with guest Valerie Mukanga and uses a walk with her dog Butters—who keeps looking back at a cat—to illustrate how past hurts and triggers can derail our forward motion.

She shares a practical, faith-centered remedy: daily thankfulness. Dara describes keeping a gratitude journal and a monthly “grateful” sticky-note board to keep God at the center and prevent looking back.

The episode offers encouragement and a simple challenge: cultivate gratefulness to stay focused on where God is leading you.
